"So correct me if I am wrong please, but they still dont know what the cause is (and probably never will), so the "fix" from Boeing is to "contain" a runaway battery, ie contain and released fluids and thermal damage inside a stronger box, not stop it from happening in the first place, am I correct? "
agree amazing conclusions. What about pressure build up in the containment should the worst occur? And at that point you don't have the battery. I don't see how this helps half way across the Pacific or Atlantic.
